boulder dash Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Was able to get in about 6 hours of detecting after a friend and i did some drywashing. He had to head home so i took to detecting a really small trib and started hitting chunky gold and three really large coppers. Ended up with 2.6 grams detected Drywashed for about 3.5 days and ended up with 12.1 more grams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomH Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Dern your doing good! Glad for you.Congrats on the gold and copper. Im guessing the copper gave a lot harsher signal then the gold?I found some of them in the past. If you put them in muriatic acid they will clean up real nice. Some of them are cystaline and look cool. Then after rinsing off and dipping them in baking soda and water rub a little oil on them so they wont tarnish over again. Good luck to you out there.Or I can chrome plate them for you Tom H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Thats pretty cool, and a small trib that carries copper & gold can only lead to good things....... best of luck with it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
